The Romney Campaign Manufactures a Crisis; or: Lamest October Surprise Ever

Word on the street is that the Romney campaign has decided that it's last shot at winning involves manufacturing a foreign policy crisis.

The idea, apparently, is to pretend that there is something nefarious behind the fact that the administration did not immediately know everything there was to know about the recent embassy attacks.

Because, you see, Obama not knowing everything immediately about a relatively minor foreign policy problem is worse than, say, Bush prosecuting a years-long campaign of disinformation about the biggest terrorist attack in American history...

Jesus, these people are loathsome.
